Another variation on the most depressing phrase in British tennis

It could, and did. get worse though:

Oli on Twitter: "I'm now officialy a dubs spesh"

I do hope he's joking! bleh

indiana · Tennis legend

Yeah, I think Oli was reported as saying if the doubles goes better at the US Open Juniors he may just concentrate on doubles from now on.

Behave!

LOL

SMC1809 · All-time great

I think I heard from a friend of a friend that Oli and Neil Skupski were on the verge of forming a speciliast doubles partnership, but pulled out as they couldn't think of a suitable nickname. They had to drop their original choice of Goldski following the threat of yoghurt based legal action. I think it's true.

Maza1987 · Challenger level

I actually wouldnt mind ollie concentrating on dubs.
Maybe he can be the next nestor.

*chokes*

Osomec · Junior player

Both of our boys are on last today. Morgan is scheduled to play on Louis Armstrong Court.

DavidC · Tennis legend

In keeping with the tradition of the board I'll christen the two teams Golly and Morgue (and hope that the latter doesn't precipitate an early demise of the partnership wink

)

After three tight games, with Ollie and Jiri saving breakpoints it is

Golly 2-1*

DavidC · Tennis legend

Golly 3*-3 (had their first bp but couldn't convert)

DavidC · Tennis legend

First break comes at the best possible moment smile

Golly 6-4
